    The above mentioned by JQP wasp spray, some type of pepper/ bear spray or mace then crack them over the head or stab them in the throat or eyes.
    What about a small air horn can? It should get some attention and probably scare them off.
    Where the hell you delivering to?

    No guns allowed. Keep a can of wasp spray within reach. Ortho Home Defense hornet and wasp spray, sprays 20 feet, and I don't think it's a coincidence they have "home defense" on the label lol. Good for a stray dog that wants to eat you, too
     
    MIT Thanks this.

    I know there's a lot of psychotic truck drivers out there and even though I sometimes poke them with sticks, I've never really felt the need to be armed out here. If somebody wants to fight me over something asinine then I'll fight them with my fists and of they still feel the need to shoot me, they can explain to the judge and.to my family why.

    I do believe it's a myth about guns being against DOT regs. That's also what I was taught when I got my CDL the first time, before there was the internet to fact check. Even so,. If you drive for Millis you're going to be in jurisdictions that isn't going to recognize your CCW permit. New York and New Jersey in particular.

    When I drove for CDS, we parked on the street in Compton one night... In the 90s... And we didn't die. It's not this violent war zone out here that a lot of people make it out to be

    Only in truck stop bathrooms where sometimes I walk in and think to myself, "Was there a wild animal in here?"

    I fueled at that tiny little Pilot in Cornersville, TN a couple of days ago. Had to wait in line for forever for the restroom because somebody had literally #### all over the place and they had to clean it up. W.T.F.

    8CFE69E7-7219-470B-BB2C-5DD4875839F2.jpeg Lol someone’s in for a bad day down in Cartersville. A dropped trailer about 8 inches lower than all the other trailers loaded with scrap paper will need to be delivered at some point.
    It’s almost like somebody was lowering the landing gear and just forgot about what they were doing and went on to something else.

    Way back working at A&W right after high school, I had to clean up the men's room after someone destroyed it. How #### got all over the walls...I'll never know.
